10th Jimmy Anderson Girls' Invitational
Jacksonville CC, Jacksonville, NC
October 5-6, 2019
 
Final Results
 
Cindy Song of Waxhaw, NC started the day five shots off the lead in the Jimmy Anderson Girls' Invitational, but quickly took control of the tournament by shooting five under par 30 on the front nine.  Her front nine included five birdies with four in a row on holes five through eight.  "I played really well today, but it could have been better" stated Song.  "It was my career round, so it was fun today" added Song.  The back nine was not as easy for Song.  A tap in birdie on the tenth hole moved Song to six under par and a comfortable four shot lead.  Song did stumble making bogeys on eleven and twelve, but bounced right back with an eagle 3 on the par five thirteenth and followed the eagle with a birdie on fourteen.  Another bogey on sixteen moved Song to six under, but she finished off the round with a tap in birdie on the eighteenth to cap off her round of seven under par 65.  In winning the tournament, Song set the record for the lowest single round (65) and the tournament scoring record (137).  First round leader Maria Atwood of Holly Springs, NC and Katherine Schuster of Kill Devil Hills, NC finished tied for second at three under par 141.
 
This annual junior tournament was started by the alumni of the Jacksonville Country Club junior golf program in 2009 to honor their longtime teacher and friend Mr. Jimmy Anderson.  Jimmy Anderson was the head golf professional at Jacksonville Country Club for over 25 years.  Each Saturday morning, he conducted a junior golf clinic to help spread the game of golf to the next generation.  During his tenure at Jacksonville CC, he taught many juniors including Mallory Miller, the 1987 N.C. Junior Champion and numerous future collegiate and golf professionals.  Not only did he teach the game of golf, but was always there with a helpful word of encouragement to any young golfer.  The tournament began as a boys and girls tournament, but due to the success of the event, the girls have been given their own tournament that is conducted each fall in October.
 
This annual junior girls’ tournament is conducted jointly by the Peggy Kirk Bell Girls’ Tour and the Carolinas Golf Association.
